My neice has a Jr tag in 8. Won't be able to go with them cuz I'm headed to NM in the morning for a week! Should bring back some pictures. I hope Lance

Fly it! The bulls are starting to bunch up in the back canyons that time of year and don't moove much. There are some watter wholes that are way back and away from the roads in 22 south also. I have never done the archery hunt there but have packed a pot load of bulls out of the wilderness areas in that unit on the late rifle hunts.

leaning towards the 8th-9th of June. Any one else have any plans for tring to make it? It is a ways off but before it comes around I will need to plan food for how many. I'm thinking we could provide a dinner on Friday night and maybe a breakfast or lunch on Saturday depending on when the most of you will be there. I'm sure we could dig up some smores for the kids/(adults ). Maybe some archery targets or some kind of outdoor activity like that? My first thought was the Heart Prairie area. It still has some snow and might be the least dusty in June. Although Marshall Lake is a great center point for fishing and is very nice also. Just looking for input.... Thanks Lance

What do you think about June 8th or June 15th? These would be after the Turkey season and after the big archery shoots. These are both Fridays and would be in the evening and could flow into Saturday for thoes wanting to camp. Does Friday evening fall into the weekday catagory? Is there anything big going on thoes weekends that I am missing. Hunt apps are due, but you can take care of that early Is one better than the other? I hate to go any latter into the year if fear of forest closures. Lance

Sorry not looking for a beer party, but more of a family BBQ. And Sundays are no good. Hope that doesn't change your mind! If more out of towners want to come then maybe a Saturday or a Friday afternoon that can flow into Saturday for thoes who want to stay and camp. That way we catch the weekday afternoon and the weekend possibles? Lance

Let what slide???? The comment or the rope! No really. Don't bother. We don't have to prove who Amanda is. I saw the same article and thought "good for her for getting recognized for what she does!" Forget it. Contention is of the devil and we don't need to drag ourselves down to that.

Very Enjoyable! Awesome pictures! Thank you and keep them comming! Lance

AWESOME isn't it! I get to look at it every day! Lance

This idea is what it should of said if they wanted to change it!!!!!!! Took the words right out of my mouth "HUNTMUP"! I think this would have been fine with everyone. Would you guys agree? The G$F is still stuck on gitting more hunters in the field by reducing hunter success Remember the tricky G$F servey everyone took about "Would you like more hunting oppertunity"? To them that =$$$! They knew what they wanted to do and they came up with that nicely worded servey to trick everyone into giving them the ammo they needed to get more people in the field. Had the servey been clear about its intentions and said something like "Would you like more hunting oppertunities if it ment screwing up hunts by lowering hunter success so we could add more hunters in the field?" then they would have had different results. But they didn't want diferent results did they

Ahh yes! I reconise that bull now. Thoes last pictures reminded me of where I have seen this bull before! Did you take the last pictures as well? I did't realise that was you that took the night pictures of him. I also didn't realise he is now dead. Can I change my score+? You shouldn't feal bad at all for passing the #2 bull, he's just a baby.

Man! Thoes pictures were just as good the second time around! Thanks

Now thoes look like the dino tracks that I have seen. The first tracks look like man made. I have seen lots of petrogliphs of the same shape. It almost looks like a matati area (or however you spell it) A place where natives ground corn. Maybe the little kids decorated the rock while waiting for mom? Or maybe it's the six fingerd man who killed my father!!!!? Bwaaahahaha! "Prepare to die!"

It's hard to tell without seeing them walking around in person, but guessing on a picture is still fun! Bull #1 has awesome tops and looks 370ish but the fronts are short and that can be deceiving. Bull #2 might go 320ish if he is lucky. Bull #2 has lots of carater that makes him look bigger! How did I do!

I love the pictures guys! And thoes Sheep are awesome!

I hope to fill another archery goat tag in 10 this year! This one is 5B. The Coues is my neice with her dads awesome Oct. buck!

I can see why.... .... that is a Dandy!!!! Thanks, Thanks to you to "elkhunter". With only 14" main beems he is a beautiful stacked 115" B&C from southern AZ! He looks beautiful in our home also! Coues deer make the prettiest mounts don't they!

Looks like the same bull to me. Did you put a tape to him? Would like to see a side vew on bull #2. Lance

Thoes pictures are soooo coool! Way to go guys! Thanks for sharing! Lance

I was always fond of this one haha

oops I ment this picture

Gota love the smiles on the kids!

Hey guys, I actually like the unit. It has taken many years to figure out the late rifle hunt, but I like to think we got it figured out pritty good. It helps to live here. We shyed away from it for many years because it is so hard and unlike other units. There are definently easer units. But now we run excelent success on good bulls and have been applying hunters for that hunt the past few years. So you fellow CWT guides out there that don't want to touch it, please send them our way, we have grown to love it! Thanks Lance

Congrats on a great tag or tags! Don't waist them on big bulls. Hold out for the bigest! Lance

What tag/hunt do you have? You can hunt high, but so does everyone else. You could hunt low, but so does everyone else, You could hunt in the middle, but so does everyone else. Or you can just try to out hunt the other hunters and that is something not everyone else can do The elk are VERRY call shy in this unit compared to others.

That unit sucks soooo bad. I hope you even see an elk!
